This article is about justice. It also includes this paragraph.

Adame’s lawyer noted that his client was still on probation at the time of Santangelo’s death and knew that she can’t do “butt work” in California, but said the woman known as “the butt lady” or “La Tia” was working as a consultant on behalf of doctors who can legally perform buttocks injections in Tijuana, Mexico.

After two years of work, I got confirmation that the digital print of our horror film DEAD MEDIA is on its way to the theater in Minneapolis for the premiere. I decided to celebrate in my traditional way: a melodramatic martini selfie

Premiere info here: deadmediamoviempls102025.eventbrite.com

A man drinks a martini on a balcony. The setting sun bursts through the glass. He wears a t-shirt from the Minneapolis sci-fi/mystery bookstore, Uncle Hugo’s

Grokipedia aiming to erase Wikipedia isn't a new concept. No one asked, but my two cents is: try to be someone they'd want to erase. Like Thaddeus Stevens and Lydia Hamilton.

Oh totally. I was going to joke that it was a sexual thing, but I didn't see any women in the crowd to riff with.

David Huntsberger @davidhuntsberger.com · 10d

At one point I mentioned how it's weird they can't criticize their leaders, and some dudes put all four fingers aimed at their throats and sort of moved them back and forth, so I just switched gears. Kept my head completely attached though.

The Riyadh crowd, they're just like us. I was like "You guys don't mess around with fake news! Can't be fake if it doesn't have a head." and these dudes in the front row were dyin'. Blessed to be a part of it.

T-shirt sales in Riyadh were honestly pretty good. Despite what the wokesters will tell you, they were pretty cool with free speech. I said retard and fag probably 80 times in my set and didn't get beheaded at all.

Hell, my ass? One way I'll respond to a question is to prepare the listener that they're dealing with a bit of a wild card. Grab their attention right away. Something like "Hell, my ass??"

I'm in touch with Tucker May, the husband of Barbara Gomes Marques. He's confirmed she's in custody in Louisiana and that her deportation to Brazil could happen as early as today or tomorrow. They are constituents of Rep. @chu.house.gov and are hoping someone can step in before it's too late.

That stings, dude. I write the jingle for that. If it makes you feel any better, I keep adding an extra 'liberty' to it every year.
